silk midi dress

This is a treasure. This was my sister's dress in the 80s, and it's been kept in my mom's clinically sterile house all this time. Midi length, princess seams at the bodice, but with a bit of what I think is a reverse gather? I am not a sewist so I don't know the words, but the seam opens space at the bust line. The waist opens into a lovely swirling skirt, not too full, not too straight. It's magnificent. Someone needs to wear this with strappy heels to a wedding or afternoon tea or a milestone birthday party.
